The Lisa Phillips Podcast

What does it take to make the Internet scale? Lisa talks about her time at Twitter and killing the Fail Whale. Remote work challenges way before the pandemic, a dirt floor data center and Tin Whistle murder. Internet utopia and being a dark skinned woman in a white-male dominated field. All that and an eternal Scottish plumbing metaphor for Twitter capacity. Lovely stuff.   Music: Frosted Glass Used under license from Sound of Picture https://www.soundofpicture.com/ SFX Dial up Modem courtesy of Sound Jay: https://www.soundjay.com/tos.html

The Lisa Phillips Podcast - talking about serious stuff and laughing. Mostly.  Episode 2, and you're still here! Awesome! This week we revisit our chat from July 2020, a time of innocence when the world was...just as screwed as it is now. We talk a red arm as a sign of COVID immunity; how being five months deep in a pandemic looks when you're seventeen months deep; social isolation and the fear of a lonely death. And what we knew then and know now about ourselves and where we're at.
